My OS is vista please anything you can do I appreciate it thanks

Hello Young Ceaser,

Thank you for using the Microsoft Windows Vista Forums.

Have you always had this problem with the creation of a new folder?  When you try to create that file to?  Please let us know status.  Thank you!

I'd like to experience for me to better understand the potential cause for what you are experiencing.

What we will do is create a new folder in your user profile directory and test the availability of renaming.

We also create a folder on your desktop and attempt to appropriate to see if we can then rename it.

Here are the steps to do this:

Click Start-> click on your username at the top right of the menu.

In the new window, click on organize-> then new folder

Check your ability to rename.

From there, double-click the desktop folder.

Take the same steps to create a new folder, test the name change.

Then, on an issue that you cannot rename, test this procedure:

To take ownership of a folder:

Right-click the folder for which you want to set permissions, click Properties and then click the Security tab.

Click Advanced to open the security settings advanced for the dialog box .

Click on the owner tab, click on change. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

In the new security settings advanced to box, the change in ownership to: field, select your username and check Replace owner of subcontainers and objects. Click OK, repeat for the other boxes. (If your username does not appear click on the button other users or groups to add your account).

Try to rename the folder.

Once you are complete with tests, you can delete the folder created by right-clicking on them and selecting Remove.

  • Disable the copy or cut and paste completely

    From: kend_beledm

    Is it possible on a windows-based systems to disable or completely disable the copy and paste function, any type of program is displayed on the screen.

    De : Andrew McLaren

    You can do this for Windows as a whole (and even if you did, users could simply use a print-screen instead, limited data). But you can do it for specific applications: essential technology is Windows Rights Management Services ("RMS"). See http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/technologies/rightsmgmt/default.mspx

    If you have an application that can participate in a RMS infrastructure, you can indeed set up policies to selectively allow or prevent the n-cut-paste, etc., to users and groups. or refuse to cut-and - paste altogether in this application.

    Microsoft Office is the application most common which can be plugged into RMS. Once it is all together, it is extremely effective... you really want to cut-and - paste privileged information from this juicy email or a Word document. but hell, you just can not! You also cannot transfer protected emails, etc..

    There is a public SDK, so anyone can write an application that subscribes to RMS and restrict access to the application data. However if you have a legacy application (IE, an already existing application) which you can not re-engineer, so I think you're a bit stuck. You may need to address the issue of security in a non computer perspective, such as human resources policies, etc.

    You can also take a look at the Software Restriction policies ("PRS"), a similar security Windows feature. SRP will not stop users to cut and paste, as such; but it lets you create a very controlled environment. You can stop the users do a lot of things you don't want to do. See:

    http://technet2.Microsoft.com/windowsvista/en/library/0d504b1d-e57c-4DCC-8A5A-8d1da9e4d1fe1033.mspx?mfr=true

  • keep the formula when cut and paste cells

    I have a workbook for card games where we're going to turn seats/tables throughout the day (6 moves in total).  I have reproduced the a sheet that has cells with formulas to pick up names among the other sheets in the workbook.  When I cut and paste them, for my seat of update, the formula of data changes.  IE:, journal name game 1, cell #A1 said = name cell A2 of sheet summary and so on.  When I cut and paste, it will change this formula in the correct sheet but bad cell.  Why is she even change any link to the other sheet?

    Thank you.

    It is difficult to follow what you describe here.  By workbook (not a term of numbers), it seems you're saying that worksheet. But in numbers, you can't have a sheet that contains cells. The cells are take-away in an array of numbers that is located on a sheet.  You can duplicate a table of numbers and you can also duplicate a sheet of numbers, but it is not too clear what you're doing.  How about providing a screenshot of what happens?

  • Problem with the numbers in the rows of cut and paste

    Hey,.

    I'm new to MAC and now have problems with the help of figures, I brought my windows Excel worksheets. On windows, I could cut a line and paste anywhere on this page and by practice that Excel would fill the void rank where I cut the content. but here on MAC it does not work, why?

    anyway I tried to live with it by cutting a line and for the collage, I used Insert > copied lines for paste swath and add a line for her. but last night I updated the numbers and now by the practice precedes the Windrow is stuck this time with a resized form, the line is resized to a big line.

    Why is this happening? If it can't be fixed, I can go back to a previous version of a number? This update of hate.

    Numbers is excellent NO then you should consider to guide your expectations.

    Cut number refers only to the content NOT the line, or cells.  Select when a row, and then use the cut command that you cut the contents of the cells.

    If you try to move a line from one place to another, you should try this method (which can work for you)...

    Select the line, then click and hold on the header line (up to the line "lift" on the table), the operation slide the line to the destination.

    Now drag the line:

    Now drop the line where you want to:

  • BlackBerry smartphone App World - My World - cannot connect after completing the new service provider and phone

    Hello.

    I recently switched from AT & T on the 8110 curve from T-Mobile on the Curve 8900.

    I had paid and downloaded a few apps through app World on my previous phone.

    When I try to log on to my new phone to My World, after entering my information to PayPal, I get this error:

    'Failed to authenticate the user at this time.  Please try again later. »

    This means that I can't get my old apps, but I can not also purchase new apps I want.

    Does anyone have a solution?  Will there be a remnant of my account with AT & T somewhere in the system that needs to be eliminated?

    Thank you.

    I figured out it was expired on record with PayPal credit card.

    As soon as I updated with PayPal, any charge in My World.

  • I did according to the instructions RE: cut and paste, still does not work.

    This is what is shown as my profile directory
    /Home/davidlisle/.Mozilla/firefoxsa4u14wa.default-1390261301661

    It's the user.js, I created in accordance with the online instructions page:

    // This file can be used to configure global preferences for Firefox
    // Example: Homepage
    pref("browser.startup.homepage", "http://www.linkedin.com/");
    user_pref("capability.policy.policynames", "allowclipboard");
    user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.cutcopy", "allAccess");
    user_pref("capability.policy.allowclipboard.Clipboard.paste", "allAccess");
    

    However, the data but followed instructions do not produce the expected results.
    Right now I see myself forced to use another browser as I work a lot on the line and I 'should' be able to copy / paste. If you can respond in a timely and a solution, I'll continue with firefox, I like. Otherwise, my frustration level has peaked and interest in firefox is rapidly declining.

    I should be able to accomplish this task with simple steps, not an eternity of troubleshooting your installation bad 'protection '. I am equally sure that many others have no problem, I do however.

    I have provided some basic information about this machine, if you need something specific, I'm sure I'll be happy to hand it to you.

    New to Applescript/Automator-

    I want to be able to have a simple shot that will allow me to paste a particular image in a conversation in Messages... It is the same image that I want every time. But I want to avoid having to go to Messages, search for image copy and then turn over Messages to paste.  I didn't need the script to automatically display the message, simply cut and paste of the pictures folder so that I am in Messages in a new message to the existing message thread (it makes no sense to me).

    Found a solution for the "DVD RW cut and paste problem" in my Windows XP feedback system.

    Installed the package free writing Drag2Disc software for Windows Vista (32 bit, 64 bit), XP (32-bit, 64-bit) of IBM/Lenovo on system invited and formatted a DVD disc.  Everything seems to work fine on the DVD RW drive systems of the host and the guest.

    The available Drag-to-Disc packet writing software can be downloaded from the following site:
    http://www-307.IBM.com/PC/support/site.WSS/document.do?sitestyle=Lenovo & lndocid = RAHUL-40970

    Thanks for the suggestions everyone.

    ODA

    you set up the writer as IDE

    in my experience, you must configure it as SCSI
    See http://sanbarrow.com/vmx/vmx-cd-settings.html

    even then, I'm not sure if the packet writing is supported - software for CD burning ordinary as Nero and others should work well

  • cut and paste does not work

    I have DirectorMX2004 10.1. I use a PPC Mac, the last line of the G5s. The characteristics of cut and paste do not work no matter how I apply, even on different files. Is this a bug that someone knows? Or are there settings that I could reset? I am at a loss here. Thanks in advance!

    I thought about it. I was not clicking on the channel where I wanted to stick. I moved a picture different without selecting the channel, so Director did not know where to paste.

  • Error: The file has properties that cannot be copied to the new location

    Hi, I have a problem when copying the files in my windows 7 PC to my Sansa clip 4 GB of sport.

    This error appears when I transfer them to any folder on my sport Clip:

    Are you sure you want to copy this file without its properties?
    The file has properties that cannot be copied to the new location.

    I can click Yes or not (when I click Yes, the file is copied to the new location)

    The reason why I ask is the following:
    The file will be somewhat different after being copied on my sport Clip?
    This is a file audio subliminal message to help me overcome some mental problems, so it would be bad if the file is modified after copying...

    The file plays perfectly and sound quality seems very good.
    However, I still need to know if the file is modified in a way?

    The device is correctly detected, but in the manual it says that when you go into my computer and click on the Sansa Clip Sports, you must click on a folder in the internal memory and then you will find a folder of music.

    But it is not at all a folder in the internal memory...

    When I click on Sansa Clip sport, I see these folders:
    Sound, music, audio books, Podcasts, playlists.
    AUDBOOK. LIB, AUDIBLE. LIB, M3U. LIB, MUSIC. LIB, PODCAST. LIB, version.sdk

    Thank you in advance, I really hope that someone will answer you

    The file properties check the metadata associated with the file.  This error occurs generally when the file was created on an NTFS volume and some of the assosiated with this file metadata is not supported on a FAT32 volume. What you mean actually is not associated with file properties, so it would not be changed.

  • I have the new Windows 8 and cannot sync my Ipod Nano

    I have the new Windows 8 and cannot sync my Ipod Nano is anyone know how to do this?

    When I try to sync my ipod nano with my new system of Windows 8, I get a notice of the WDF_violation and the sad face on a blue screen, then my computer needs to be restarted.  I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled, so I have the latest version on my machine.  However, which did not help.  ITunes recognizes my nano and gives me an indication that it's sync... but new music I bought is not on the nano, nor is the updates of my specific playlists.

    Clearly, it's a matter of Microsoft/Windows as my nano worked perfectly last week when I was on my old computer (Vista).

    If this isn't an issue which is, or has been processed by Microsoft, it should be.  If my nano and my Windows 8 cannot talk to each other which is not acceptable.
